How do you warm up a vehicle where the gasoline engine does not turn on until it is going more than 15 mph or over 30% throttle accelerating from a stoplight?
My brothers GF just bought one. The way she drives, it gets about 40% better city and 30% better highway mileage than the 4 cylinder Volvo wagon it replaced. I think the acronym YMMV is entirely appropriate for this. Every hybrid has driving situations they do well in, and situations where they do poorly.
